Vertical Power Shaft

Description
Vertical Power Shaft
This mod adds 2 new Power Shafts. These power shafts will allow you to transfer power vertically, but also completely dynamically!

How to use
You will find power shafts under the Power tab. The connections of the Universal Power Shaft will only update when it is connected to a power source.

Is it possible to make these available to the Whitepaw Faction again?

really cool mod! though it is strange that the straight to vertical shaft is strictly better than the vanilla upward and downward shafts, maybe make it a bit more expensive? +1 gear cost perhaps?

I have a feature request.

Could you please create a block that has a horizontal power shaft going through it? I was working on a build today that could have benefited from passing power directly through a dam but had to build up and around it.

It seems like this could be feasible, as the new Pipes mod implemented a horizontal pipe embedded in a block to pass water through a dam.

@[BF] matthewmullen91 - there is already a "universal power shaft" that can be put down to do just that.

Instead of having several different power shafts, is it possible to make a universal one that changes based on what it can connect to so that you don't have to sever and rejoin power connections just to add a new building to the power network? Maybe you could add extract to the material requirements to explain why it can change shape as required? Diagonal connections would be another cool feature if that could be implemented too

I modified the file myself and solved it. It's a great mod. Thank you

@crashfly -- Also provided feedback. But when two mod were used together, this mod failed.

@诺米 - sounds like you should report that to the "GreedyBuilders" mod then as this mod works perfectly fine for me without that mod.

For those complaining that it isn't needed... Update 6 adds 3 items. Top and bottom shaft, Top and 1 side shaft, Bottom and 1 side shaft.
This means you can't have any form of junction with Vanilla vertical power shafts.
This mod adds extra variants, so you can go up and down, AND out the side, multiple sides even, at the same time. Very useful.
